R26 Gear box saying goodbye?

  1. Having trouble engaging various gear ratios. May take more than one attempt. No particular gear. Then it’s fine. Occasional “burning” smell.
    Is my gearbox about to snuff it?
    Is it economically viable to repair or just replace?
    Cheers

  3. Not sure if it was changed when engine was rebuilt last year. Will give it a go as been driven hard since.

    Yeah give the oil a change and if it doesn't help maybe the selector bush needs drilling and greasing

    But if that fails maybe new gearbox lol
